Rumours
- Adolf Hitler is rumoured to make a brief appearance.[source needed]
- There will be many types of different Daleks. Two have been seen already seen. A white/grey Dalek with new eyestalk and a khaki coloured Dalek with utility belt and a Union Flag where the normal Dalek ID is below the eyestalk.
- Steven Moffat stated in a TalkTalk interview, that half-an-hour through this episode, you will have a 'revelation' and will have to watch the episode again to understand.[source needed]
- The Daleks will survive the end of the episode. In DWM #420, Steven Moffat says "I can see you all smirking at the title, and thinking 'Oh, I bet it's not a victory.' Yeah? Do you think?"and Mark Gatiss says "The reason it's called Victory of the Daleks is cos they win. They win."
